On Wednesday March 22nd 2017, The Dare2Dream Team together with the main partners Imperial Leather, FCMB, Canoe, Wazobia TV and Wazobia MAX, met at Chocolat Royal for a press brunch to announce publicly the airing of the 16 new episodes of Dare2Dream Season3 that aims to inspire the youths of Nigeria.

A presentation of what the Dare2Dream initiative stands for was led by Caterina showing the figures and success recorded over the years and what the contestants always stood to gain through a testimonial video from the contestants of Dare2Dream.

During the media briefing, Mannie Essien, OAP of Cool FM, a Bootcamp mentor and the presenter of the Grand Finale, pointed out that Dare2Dream Season 3 is not just a reality show but a community project that links the untrained to the professional. He added that the show reaches a countless number of women in Nigeria who by ordinary effort might not be able to explore their God given talent.Mildred Baghaw of Imperial Leather explained that the masterclasses in the show were designed to provide the girls with business insights and life skills that could be explored for their future personal and career development.

Tatiana Moussalli (DGMD Wazobia TV, Wazobia Max, Wazobia FM & Cool FM) talked about youth talents and the importance of setting goals and working hard. She added that even when the contestants don’t win, they should keep working hard and never let go of the humility and determination to transform themselves from a young talent to an established personality. Still on the issue of the youth, Kemi Akintowu of FCMB mentioned that through the Flexx zone, FCMB created a series of online services and career programs to help youths plan for their future.

Josephine Eno, the Season1 finalist and Dare2Dream production team member for Season2 and Season3, shared how the project has evolved from a modelling contest in Season1 to a platform that truly empowers young people precisely transferring soft and creative skills that can be used to become a MSME (micro-small medium entreprise).

The project is growing towards the international marketing since the past season’s finalists were surprised with trip to Milan for agency interviews and Vogue Italia feature on Dare2Dream this week:
